Beautifully written, deftly performed, love it !!!

Feeling those lyrics Tony, and what a great piece of music you wrapped round them...Cool Country!

I cannot keep away from this song , fantastic Tony !

Great remake of your older version.  Thankfully we have radio stations devoted to 90's country; man that was a golden era, so many great songs.  Maybe they'll get back to it.

Absolutely on the money, Tony.  I'm pretty darned sure it's not (just!) my old age grumping that tells me, with a few exceptions, that contemporary "popular" music, in many genres if not most genres is way poorer than in days gone by.  But as you say - it will revive.  Top work, my friend.

This is such a fantastic track Tony , love it !

Wonderful Country song. Sad to lose all the old time greats.

Vibrant song - really worked up a fine melody here

Hey Tony! It's been a while since I swung by. This one sounds great! And living just down the road from Nashville...boy do I hear people lamenting this very sentiment. ;)

Tus raíces de sangre se han perdido,   /   Your blood roots are lost
y tu exótico mundo ha envejecido.   /   and your exotic world has got old.

y tus bosques en hambre,   /   and your forests to hunger,
y tus hombres en tierra.   /   and your men to soil.

"Ah! Sun-flower" is a poem by William Blake, published in his collection Songs of Experience in 1794. The poem explores themes of longing, weariness, and the human desire for something beyond earthly existence, using the sunflower as a symbol. 

A big thank you to you Torbjørn, what a great joy to sing this beautiful poem.

Poem: William Blake

Ah! sunflower, weary of time,
Who countest the steps of the sun,
Seeking after that sweet golden clime
Where the traveller’s journey is done;

Where the youth pined away with desire,
And the pale virgin shrouded in snow,
Arise from their graves and aspire;
Where my sunflower wishes to go.

Ah! Sun-flower. Torbjørn Vagle. Oddrun Eikli

This is a new recording of an old song I wrote for my son when he was a kid.  He just got married earlier this year.   Time really flies.

Thanks for stopping by and hope you enjoy the song.

[LYRICS]
Make yourself a dream 
Sketch a vision to lead you through   
Set the goals in life and cast away the blues
Make yourself a dream though things aren't always what they seem 
Sometimes you'll find your whimsical moments in your dreams

Feel the magic in the songs 
Rhythm of life singing along  
Lovely things surrounding you 
Dreams are coming true
Bathe in the breeze of the morning sun
Fulfill wishes one by one
Keep your feet firm on the ground 
Things will come around for you

Life is like a dream 
Full of wonders and surprises 
Needless to ask why 
All in the mirror of your eyes

Lines of hills clear in the morning sky 
Scent of flowers colored butterflies 
Rewarding opportunities are all there to welcome you

Reach out for the twinkling stars 
Stretch and they aren't very far 
Keep your feet firm on the ground 
Things will turn around

Feel the magic in the songs 
Rhythm of life singing along  
Keep your feet firm on the ground 
Things will turn around for you

Make Yourself a Dream

New Version of a song that I wrote in 2015

WELL, THE POSSUM, HE IS GONE
THE MAN IN BLACK, IS GONE TO
OLD NUMBER ONE IS GONE
THE HAG IS GONE TO

SHOTGUN WILLIE IS STILL AROUND
HE'S MISSIN' OLD NUMBER ONE
COUNTRY WILL NEVER BE THE SAME
WHO'S GONNA TAKE THE BLAME

WISH I COULD GO BACK IN TIME
WHEN COUNTRY WAS MIGHTY FINE
DOWN HOME STORYTELLIN'
AND FINE FIDDLE PLAYIN'
THEM DAY'S ARE LONG GONE
YEA, THEM DAY'S ARE LONG GONE

MY DADDY LISTENED TO OLD HANK
PLAYED HIS TUNES ON HIS HARP
I CAN STILL HEAR HIM PLAYIN'
HEY GOOD LOOKIN' WHAT'S YOU GOT COOKIN'

WHAT GOES AROUND COMES AROUND
OLD COUNTRY WILL BE BACK AROUND
NEW GENERATIONS WILL WONDER WHY
IF WE LET TRADITIONAL COUNTRY DIE

WISH I COULD GO BACK IN TIME
WHEN COUNTRY WAS MIGHTY FINE
DOWN HOME STORYTELLIN'
AND FINE FIDDLE PLAYIN'
THEM DAY'S ARE LONG GONE
YEA, THEM DAY'S ARE LONG GONE

(REPEAT VERSE 3, 4 AND CHORUS)

Them Days Are Long Gone (New Version) - Lyrics by Tony Harris

Taken from the forthcoming album: My Sweetheart The Liar

A song about the vultures circling and waiting to pick at the carcass of a dead relationship. 

Did you know: Vultures have evolved strong immune systems and highly acidic stomachs that allow them to eat decaying flesh without getting sick from the harmful bacteria and pathogens present in it.

Every day is a school day. I'm happy to learn and learn from my mistakes.

LYRICS:
So look out Mr Waiting In The Wing
Desperately trying to type the right thing
Waiting on your big chance
With her second hand romance
You circle like a vulture
You hover and you linger
And drum impatient fingers
On keys of plastic and ivory

It's just a warning

So look out Mr Waiting In The Wing
You think you're going to be an exception
To her deceitful ways
Questioning everything she says
And will she ever attest
You're always going to be second best
To a ghost on a pedestal
That haunts her lonely final days

It's just  a warning

There's addiction she has to feed
Should she desire, should she need to
Enjoy it while it lasts
You're never going far
Don't ignore red flags
She'll look you in the eyes
And never think twice while she's spinning lies
Don't rush and don't move too fast
You've gotta dig deep, don't ignore her past

Do you think you can trust this woman?
Do you think you can change her?
Do you think you can trust this women?
Do you think you can tame her?

She's not trustworthy
No accountability

Do you think you can trust this woman?
Do you think you can change her?
Do you think you can trust this women?
Do you think you can tame her?

Mr Waiting In The Wing

This song was written at the same time as ‘Get Up’ which I posted a couple of months ago and is very much a partner piece to it. I’ve given it a more jazzy feel and upped the tempo from my first  version which I hope has given it a brighter and lighter feel. I’ve also multi-tracked the ‘Uh Oh’ vocal loop and added a few effects to make it a little more prominent in the mix - it is after all the title! I very much hope you enjoy this one and, if you have time, maybe leave a comment. The feedback I’ve had on the other songs has been really, really helpful ( and very encouraging too! ).

Kickin' Up Dust

“Just Admit It” by Linley Creek is a playful country-pop duet about temptation, late-night sparks, and the push-pull of attraction. Set against the warm glow of a barroom about to close, the two voices trade teasing lines — half-denial, half-confession — until chemistry wins. It’s flirty, fun, and full of that restless energy when you know the night could go anywhere.

'ANOTHER WAY'
Written, Performed & Produced
By Andrew Borderick Copyright 2018
Re-Mastered By Andrew Borderick OCT 2020

SOMETIMES FAST, SOMETIMES SLOW
ALL THE TIME THERE IS NO WHERE TO GO
SOMETIMES UP, ONLY LOOKING DOWN
ALL MY LOVE HAS NOW HIT THE GROUND

MAY'BE I COULD FIND, ANOTHER WAY
MAY'BE I COULD TRY, ANOTHER DAY
MAY'BE I COULD FIND,
ANOTHER WAY WITH YOU
ANOTHER WAY WITH YOU

SITTING LONELY, WHAT TO DO
THINK I'LL GO BUY SOME FANCY SHOES
I'M IN THE LIGHT, NEVER FELT BEFORE
CAN'T BELIEVE I'VE EVEN HIT THE FLOOR

MAY'BE I COULD FIND, ANOTHER WAY
MAY'BE I COULD TRY, ANOTHER DAY
MAY'BE I COULD FIND,
ANOTHER WAY WITH YOU
ANOTHER WAY WITH YOU
(BREAK)
MAY'BE I COULD FIND, ANOTHER WAY
MAY'BE I COULD TRY, ANOTHER DAY
MAY'BE I COULD FIND,
ANOTHER WAY WITH YOU
ANOTHER WAY WITH YOU

SOMETIMES FAST, SOMETIMES SLOW
ALL THE TIME THERE IS NO WHERE TO GO
SOMETIMES UP, ONLY LOOKING DOWN
ALL MY LOVE HAS NOW HIT THE GROUND

MAY'BE I COULD FIND, ANOTHER WAY
MAY'BE I COULD TRY, ANOTHER DAY
MAY'BE I COULD FIND,
ANOTHER WAY WITH YOU
ANOTHER WAY WITH YOU
ANOTHER WAY WITH YOU
ANOTHER WAY WITH YOU
ANOTHER WAY WITH YOU

Another Way
